Event:
(515) Boston Celtics at (516) Golden State Warriors
Date/Time:
Play:
Boston Celtics -5.5 (-110)

Boston was a surprise in the first half of the season.  The Celtics finished with a 35-19 record, including a solid 17-10 record on the road. Boston has a past history of being ready to roll off the All-Star break, and their winning ways should continue tonight at Golden State.  The Warriors were an up and down team in the first half, and mostly down since the injuries to Jimmy Butler and Stephen Curry.  The team will now try and integrate Kristaps Porzingis into the mix, but that will take time to gel.  Tonight’s matchup against the Celtics is difficult, especially right off the extended break.  Boston is the more complete team on both ends of the court, so lay the points with the road favorite in this game on Thursday night.

Event:
(517) Orlando Magic at (518) Sacramento Kings: Spread
Date/Time:
Play:
Orlando Magic -8.5 (-110)

519 Orlando at Sacramento

Very important road game for the Magic who start a four game trip through Arizona and California. After this contest they play three games in four days against the Suns, Clippers and Lakers. Despite a 28-25 record, Orlando currently sits in first place in the Southeast.

Not only are the Kings in major tanking mode, having lost  14 straight games. They took it to a new level last time out with the equally tanking Utah Jazz. The Kings lost that game by 28 points! At one point Sacrament was 3-5 on the season, they are 9-39 since. We want no part of this club right now.

Event:
(517) Orlando Magic at (518) Sacramento Kings: Spread
Date/Time:
Play:
Orlando Magic -8.5 (-110)

Since 2005, NBA road favorites coming off a loss are 1706-1406-58 ATS (55%), while .599 or worse road favorites of greater than three points are 699-516-29 ATS (57.5%) following the All-Star break, including 208-121-6 ATS (63.2%) since 2020. Orlando entered the All-Star break off a 116-108 loss to the Bucks on February 11, which is notable because rested road favorites coming off a home loss are 611-458-20 ATS (57.2%) since 2003, including 273-191-8 ATS (58.8%) since 2018. The fact that the Magic were favored by 11 points in that contest is significant because NBA teams coming off an upset loss as favorites of at least eleven points are 255-183-11 ATS (58.2%) since 1989. Orlando also falls into profitable 308-242-10 ATS (56%) and 258-194-11 ATS (57.1%) statistical profile indicators of mine that date to 1999 and invest on NBA road favorites of greater than 8 points with certain turnover margins. Finally, the Magic are a perfect 15-0 ATS on the road with two or more days of rest following a game in which they committed fewer than ten turnovers since 1996, covering the spread by an average margin of +7.6 points per game. Take Orlando as Jeff Keim’s Free Pick Winner for Thursday, February 19.

Event:
(517) Orlando Magic at (518) Sacramento Kings
Date/Time:
Play:
Wendell Carter Jr. (ORL) Over 6.5 Rebounds at Sacramento

Sacramento likely wishes they could have just ended the season at the All-Star break, opening up the second half on a 14-game losing streak and ruling out both Zach Levine and Domantas Sabonis for the season as well. This should open up plenty of rebounding opportunities specifically for Orlando's Wendell Carter Jr. who has averaged eight rebounds per game over his last five contests. We’ll take him to go over 6.5 rebounds tonight against a Kings team that has allowed the fifth-most rebounds per game to centers this season. Sacramento also ranks 27th in rebounding rate on the season and have just allowed high rebounding totals to centers before the break, including Jusuf Nurkic (9), Jarrett Allen (10), and Neemias Queta (15). With Sacramento also sitting 28th in offensive efficiency, let’s go with the Orlando big man to get over 6.5 rebounds tonight. The only thing we’d have to worry about in this situation is the blowout factor, but we figure Carter Jr. will have to be involved in that scenario if it unfolds, ripping down rebounds on the defensive end.

Date/Time:
Play:
Denver Nuggets -4.0 (-112)

Nikola Jokic had 4 consecutive triple doubles before the All Star break, and there’s no reason to think he’ll slow down now. In fact, the rest did the entire team a lot of good, as coach Adelman said his team was exhausted. Of course, the Clippers got time off as well, but it’s hard to imagine their success continuing with the loss of Harden and Zubac. Denver has handled LA with two easy win and covers in both matchups between the teams this season. Take the Nuggets.

Date/Time:
Play:
Chicago Bulls +6.5 (-110)

The Raptors won this season's lone meeting, a 123-107 victory a couple of weeks ago. At the time, the Bulls were at the end of a road trip and were mired in a losing streak. They still haven't snapped the skid. However, they're now playing at home and the break figures to have come at the right time. The Bulls were 4-0 against the Raptors last season. They won both the games at Chicago by double-digits. Refreshed from the time off, the revenge-minded Bulls should give us their best effort. Grab the generous points.

What Types of NBA Free Picks Are Offered By WagerTalk?

NBA Betting Picks Today, NBA Predictions Tonight 

One of the most refreshing aspects of NBA picks free from WagerTalk is the frequency with which they're offered.  These are not AI picks that are just churned out nonsensically a week in advance.  These NBA picks free that are made available for today and for tonight's NBA games reflect the most recent news, injury reports, trades, matchup evaluations and much more.  They're fresh, they're frequent, and they're spectacular. 
 

Free Against the Spread NBA Picks

ATS NBA bets are some of the most popular choices for NBA bettors.  They're also among the most difficult. NBA bettors, however, and NBA experts, can sometimes find a nice edge in ATS NBA betting - maybe a line doesn't totally take into account some statistics or maybe bettors have shifted the line incorrectly.

Maybe two teams match up in such a way that the spread is moot. Only you can find out by getting your picks free for NBA bets from us

Free NBA MoneyLine Predictions

NBA moneyline betting picks are free and common from WagerTalk.  You'll see them every day from WagerTalk's team. NBA moneyline betting could not be simpler. And makes your watching of the games pretty straightforward - you simply pick the NBA team that you think is going to win. A heavy favorite won't see a generous payout, but an underdog will.

Total Points, Over/Under Free NBA Predictions 

Grab WagerTalk's free NBA over under picks daily. An over under pick simply refers to whether or a team or combined total of teams points will end up being more (over) or less (under) than the designated line for that game.

If an over/under line for an NBA game is 201.5, and you place a bet on the over, you need the teams to combine for 202+ points. It's that simple. Over/under betting can also comes in halves and sometimes even quarters - and you can get longer odds if you select a less likely over/under line offered by a sportsbook.

If two high-scoring NBA teams match up, you could very well see some pretty extravagantly high overs - but that doesn't mean it's not worth taking a look - but check with our NBA expert handicappers first for their suggested free NBA picks!

Props & Parlay NBA Betting Picks - Free NBA Picks & Parlays

WagerTalk gives you free NBA player props and team props throughout the year.  The undisputed online leader in NFL and MLB player props, WagerTalk's expert prop bettors apply that knowledge to NBA props as well. 

Is there a tasty NBA player prop out there that you haven't noticed?  Maybe a not particularly good at rebounding guard is playing against a team that bombs away from long-range and bricks hard.  Maybe that player's over/under rebounds line is something like 3.  Well, in this matchup, he's got a good shot at knocking well past that 3 rebounds, making him a great NBA player prop pick - WagerTalk can find that prop. 

Guaranteed NBA Picks & NBA Hot Picks Today

Any premium NBA package purchased from WagerTalk has the option of making it a guaranteed NBA pick - which simply means you can insure your purchase.  

NBA Hot picks today and tonight are covered in both premium paid picks and NBA free picks - our NBA expert picks take a look at matchups that might be misconstrued by the current odds and show you ways to take advantage of potential mismatches.
